Displaying Weather Information

The GXM 30 receives XM WX Weather data and shows it on

the Garmin unit’s Map Page and other screens throughout the

unit. The weather data for each feature comes from reputable

weather data centers such as the National Weather Service

and the Hydrometerological Prediction Center. (See the XM

WX Satellite Weather Web site at http://weather.xmradio.

com/weather

for more information.) Any weather feature

can change in appearance or interpretation if the source that

provides the information changes. XM WX Weather data is

broadcast at set rates (See page 30 for all weather-related

broadcast rates). For example, NEXRAD Radar data is

broadcast at five minute intervals. When the Garmin unit is

turned on or when a new feature is selected, the GXM 30 has to

receive new data before it can be shown. You may experience a

delay before weather data or a new feature appears on the map.

To display weather features on the Garmin unit’s

Map Page:

1. Press the

MENU key.

2. Highlight

Show Weather, and press ENTER.
